4 INSTRUCTIONS TO ASSESSORS To prepare for assessment of this unit of competency, assessors should refer to the RII Assessment Materials Overview Guide. This guide includes directions on how to conduct an assessment for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). Prepare for the theory assessment Ensure date, time, place, employee, assessment instrument and any tools/equipment are arranged. Ensure the environment is adequate for delivery of assessment, eg by computer, pen-and-paper or orally. The assessment questions have been drafted for easy conversion into a computer-based questionnaire. Where English or computer literacy is an issue for the employee, the employee can be offered support eg an oral assessment can be conducted. The theory assessment has been drafted as a bank of assessment questions from which a suitable set of sample questions should be chosen for any one assessment. When a sample of assessment questions is chosen from the complete bank of items, ensure the items have been suitably selected (eg all areas of the job role have sufficient sample questions included; all sections of the assessment have representative questions included) and the assessment form is finalised for the employee to use (whether in computer, pen-and-paper or oral format). Issues of question selection and coverage are decided according to site policy. Gather relevant site standards and procedures from the appropriate authorised company personnel. Explain what is required of the employee. Both employee and assessor must confirm the employee s readiness for assessment. It is recommended that the theory assessment is completed before the practical assessment. Advise the employee of performance requirements for Satisfactory performance, according to site policy. Customising the assessment The assessment questions should be customised to reflect site-specific: risks and hazards equipment and machinery processes and procedures, including reporting and recording procedures standards and requirements Safety Ensure all personnel have completed an area-specific induction prior to assessment commencing. Site, area and statutory safety requirements must be observed at all times. All Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) appropriate to the area the assessment is being carried out in, is to be worn at all times. Carrying out the assessment Gather evidence of the employee s learning using this theory assessment tool. Questions may be asked of the assessor during the assessment on any concerns relating to the assessment process and/or to clarify questions. To gain overall competency in the unit, both the theory and practical assessment criteria must be met. All questions must be answered correctly, unless otherwise stated in the assessment instrument or unless site policy has other specific requirements for Satisfactory performance. 4
